utes to get out, under threats of being

that he would send particulars from Los
Angeles. The express was running light
on this trip. With the rewards offered
by the railroad compsny, Wells, Fargo
Il Co., and with the standing offer Of the
Postofice Department, it will profit
whoever may be the captor of the rob
bers-- $22O0 for each capture.

CONFIDENCE IN rHE MINES.
Chicago Opinion OF the Gold
Find In Mexico.

CHICAGO, April 28.--In an interview
with Chicagoans whom recent dispatches
associated with the discovery Of valuable
mines in Mexico, they confirm the re-
ports. A dispatch from the City of
Mexico states that two of the seven
legendary mines from which the Spanish
cong uerors Of Mexico drew inexhaustible
quantities of gold and silver, until
uriven out by the Indians, two centuries
ago, have been found by the exploring
party sent out by the Sonora Company
two years ago, and prove to be fully as
rich as the legend has them to be. In
January, 1885, the Sonora Land Com
pany was chartered. under the laws Of
Illinois and Mexico. The original in.
tention was simply to reclaim and sur
vey the 100000 acres of grazing
lands. The corporation is composed
mostly Of residents of Chicago.

A SAD AFFAIR.
A Little Girl ut Florence Acct.
IDENTIFY Shot.

Yesterday afternoon, while two young
daughters of Mr.. N. W. Godbold, Of
Florence. were driving along Alameda
street, near Florence, with q little boy
named George Shaw, shot was heard
and one of the little girls, named Pearl
Godbold, felt sharp pain in her right
breast and blood began to flow. The
horse was driven rapidly home
and the wounded child was taken
into the house and Doctors Wise
and Mcfarland sent for. When these
physicians arrived it was found that
email bullet had entered the right breast
and penetrated to the lung, i. aictiDg
dangerous and probably fatal wound.
It was surmised that little Mexican
boy named Allessandro had fired the
shot and he was arrested by Constable
Blakesly, but shortly George Nadeau,
hearing Of the affair, came in and said
that he was out shooting with q
% -calibre target gun, and was
afraid that it was shot from
his gun that had found rest.

YARMOUTH, N. H., April 2S.-Peorle
living about Tusket island and the
neighboring mainlands have passed
forty-eight hours of terrible anxiety.
These islands are great lobster-fishing
grounds. Tues lay afternoon there was
a gale and the men were unable to 90
out to their traps. Toward o'clock the
wind died out, and boats put out by
scores to take in Holsters. They had
just about time to get to their traps
when the gale came up with increased
violence and blew with wild fury all
night. Return was impossible and
their families on shore spent an
awful night listening TO the
shrieking OF the winds and the roar OF
the breakers. When morning came
nothing was to be seen Of the fi,hermen's .
boats. and it seemed ss il they had all
been lost. Itwas not until this morn.
ing, when several steamers aud schoon.
ers arrived. that any definite informa.
tion as to the fate of the men could be
obtained. Albert Harris, of Little R.v.
er, is known to have been drowned, and
his brother Frederick, George and Cor
don Hamilton, C. MUSE and another
man, name unknown, are believed to be
drowned, as their boats have been found
bottom up. Many marvellous escapes
are reported.
